Show and Tell - Non-Manual Communication

Who it’s for: American Sign Language (ASL) instructors/educators.
What’s included: Activity for students to practice communicating using methods other than verbal. Also encourages an understanding of the importance of using non-manual markers (facial expressions and body language specifically).

Why it’s useful: For those educators who desire to use an activity for students to practice non-verbal and non-manual communication, as well as hone their use non-manual markers of ASL. Educators will need to set the parameters of acceptable show-and-tell items. When the author conducted this activity, students were instructed to bring in their favorite stuffed animal.
Extra information: Not provided here, but is provided through my other resources, is an Activity Rubric. While this activity is seemingly designed as a yes/no - done/not-done type of assignment, instructors may wish to apply a grade. Please look for the “Activity Participation Rubrics” provided in shop.
